Am I watching a US governor or the head of North Korea? The "Dear Leader"ishness is nauseating.

Desantis presser 9.00am 09.29.2022

Every time a department head comes to the mic to give a report they start with "thank you for your leadership, governor" or similar.

And what's with his wife being there? I thought they HATED it when Hillary was asked to participate in Bill's administration.



Welcome to Pyongyang, bitches.

1. Had the identical thought

Did you hear him refer to her as First Lady? 😀😀😀

2. She and one other advisor are his circle not just inner circle

I read this well into his term as Governor. There is his wife and one other advisor who make up his “team”. He has no staff, from what I understand, left from his days as a Congressman. They either left or he ran them off by generally being a complete asshole.

[malaise]

3. Wow!

Thanks for this

[Irish_Dem]

4. Will this be a winning team for a national run for presidency?

Not typically.

[Wounded Bear]

7. IDK - sounds very trump-like...nt

[jcgoldie]

12. he's Trump without the personality

Don't see him playing to the low information voters the way Trump does.

[Wounded Bear]

17. I think of him as trump with political savvy...

and thus very dangerous.

[Elessar Zappa]

22. That's not how I see it.

He’s definitely smarter than Trump but he has the charisma of a turnip. Plus, he’s short and that will work against him too. America’s shallow and likes tall leaders.

[mjvpi]

24. Never forget. He won Florida by .4%. .4%.

[Irish_Dem]

23. Trump had Putin's help.

[Samrob]

13. I really can't say what I want to at this time. Except, maybe something good will come out of this?

[dalton99a]

5. Sick fucks

[lark]

6. Clearly they were all briefied on giving effusive thanks to Herr Govern-hair

aka Death Sentence. It is sickening!

Edit - fixed typo

[gratuitous]

10. Following in the footsteps

Remember this nauseating slurp-a-thon?

[lark]

11. Disgustingly similar!

[liberalla]

19. Yes, I do! Drove me crazy!

[Aviation Pro]

8. In private, Gov. Man Bewbs is groveling for more federal assistance

Of course, President Biden will authorize it because that's the kind of man he is.

[Snackshack]

9. 🖕 him too.

[Cyrano]

14. Yep. Every single one of his appointees couldn't

thank him enough. A deadly hurricane just off the coast, DeSantis bloviates for 20 minutes, and then each of his appointed people take the mic, kiss his ass, talk about Hurricane Ian, and then kiss his ass again.

He indeed has "Dear Leader" syndrome, as well as an immense desire for the presidency.

The last "Dear Leader" fucked the country almost beyond repair. We don't need another one, but DeSantis doesn't give a shit what we need or don't need. He's determined to be the next "Dear Leader," and if he's elected president, don't expect any more elections to take place. Ever.

15. Nauseating

Questions that should be asked at his press briefings:
Do you now regret having voted against Hurricane Sandy relief when you were in Congress?
Do you think the $12 million in taxpayer funds used to forcefully relocate immigrants could have been better spent on your Florida’s hurricane recovery?

[Xoan]

16. Casey's there to hawk her PRIVATE

charity.

[samsingh]

18. he is an evil, disgusting traitor

[Peregrine Took]

20. How he or Pompeo think either of them has a chance in hell of being president is loonytunes. n/t

[Mister Ed]

21. I remember another buffoon who had no chance of being president.

That is a bit of history we must never repeat.

[ashredux]

25. Trump redux....
